MaungaHikoi,

It was either that or a C++ programmer. Those template error messages are gnarly.

MaungaHikoi,

Man for a bit I thought you were eating the seed pods from moth weed vines. Yikes.

MaungaHikoi,

Yeah some kind of topside roast I reckon. Cuts are different in the USA so probably not what we have in my country.

MaungaHikoi,

Come back to us comrade. I have over 6000 hours now and it’s still great. I’ve been playing since TI2 though so it’s only like 600hr per year average.

MaungaHikoi,

Was going to go up north for a road trip but one of the kids has gotten sick and is running a mean fever. Going to the doctors instead.

MaungaHikoi,

Sounds like a job for logrotate. It does more than just log files, kinda average name I guess. Checkout this server fault q&a for more details. serverfault.com/…/logrotate-rotating-non-log-file…

MaungaHikoi,

Yep that’s the one. If you can make a cron job to make the zip file, logrotate could handle keeping the last x files.

It might sound complicated, but the cool thing about *nix environments is that everything is made up of a combo of little tools. You can learn one at a time and slowly build something super complicated over time. First thing would be figuring out the right set of commands to make a zip file from the directory I reckon. Then add that to cron so it happens every day. Then add logrotate into the mix and have that do its thing every day after the backup runs.

MaungaHikoi,

I’m running a small dev contracting company from the far north and we don’t have too much trouble finding remote-only work. My main client is 100% remote for their entire engineering and product teams.

MaungaHikoi,

I’ve used www.unicornfactory.nz in the past, have had most of our work from word of mouth though.

edit that is for contract work mostly. The other one is the Whose Hiring posts on hacker news - this website indexes them hnhiring.com

MaungaHikoi,

I really enjoyed the Vince McMahon episodes a while back. Hope these ones are good too

MaungaHikoi,

Oh hey neighbour! Well, probably anyway. There’s only like 5 of us up here 😂

MaungaHikoi,

The one thing I find difficult in Insomnia is making the auth common across a group of requests. I end up duplicating existing requests which doesn’t help if I need to update the process at all. Is there a way to use common auth routines yet?

MaungaHikoi,

I know we have fuck all people up here but a service from Northland to Auckland would be nice.

MaungaHikoi,

My kid woke me up at 3:30 this morning for snuggles. I didn’t get back to sleep til 6 but he certainly got a sleep 😬

It’s struggle town at work today

MaungaHikoi,

Speaking of feeding hungry kids, KidsCan is a good one to support IMO. I give them $100 a month.

MaungaHikoi,

It’s an easy sell for me. I’ve got two kids myself, and one of my close friends growing up had a single mum and needed that kind of support. Hate the thought of kids going to school hungry or cold.

I’m donating about 25% of what I put aside for my retirement, hoping to bump the numbers up as I make more money

MaungaHikoi,

Yeah they’re not very good and take an age to run. I looked at heat pump options when we got a dryer and the cost savings didn’t stack up against the extra purchase cost unless you were running multiple loads a day through it. We only use ours in winter so not worth it.

MaungaHikoi,

Yeah I had mushrooms growing on my lawn this summer, was pretty nuts. Have to wear wide shoes when I got feed the chickens or I’m liable to sink into the bog, the ground just can’t support any more water. Good thing we have a bunch of trees along the edge of the property keeping us in place!

MaungaHikoi,

Had something like this and it was fine but in a late 90s house and in Wellington so the wind covered a lot of noise so YMMV.

On a windless day we could hear only hear the neighbours via the windows - out theirs and in ours. Nothing except a massive party would go through the firewall.

MaungaHikoi,

We got double glazing in that same house and it did help with the noise a bit.

MaungaHikoi,

I agree with the Greens that it’s an ambulance at the bottom of the cliff, but our local food bank has gotten a lot out of the current round of extra money and it’s really needed.

MaungaHikoi,

This isn't going to fix anything except make sure that the gig economy continues to fuck workers. I say that as someone covered by this potential legislation- there's clear rules around who counts as an independent contractor and I've never had problems keeping to those rules because I want to retain my status as independent. You can't contract out of things like the CGA or basic labour laws, and that should continue to apply here. Seymour is cutting the courts ability to decide on the edge cases in favour of a broad brush that will absolutely result in more "independent" contractor gigs cropping up and further downwards pressure on workers and wages.

Which system should I use for a kid-friendly post-apocalyptic campaign?

My kids (10 & 13) and I are wrapping up our first campaign together in D&D 5e, and I'm starting to think about the next one. It's going to be a homebrew setting--future humanity decimated by climate change, but also elements of weird magic with giant plants and insects, inspired by things like Studio Ghibli, Kipo, etc....

MaungaHikoi,

Trying to figure out balefire in a D&D campaign sounds horrifying... would be fun though!
